Lesson Plan

🔹 Art Meets Math! – Discover the magic of geometry through vibrant mosaic designs! Students will dive into symmetry, transformations, and tessellations while creating their own artistic masterpieces.

🔹 Hands-On Learning! – Get ready for an engaging experience! From interactive digital sorting games to sketching transformations, students will actively explore geometric concepts before putting them into practice.

🔹 Mosaic Inspiration! – Step into a world of patterns! A virtual gallery walk featuring Islamic tilework, Escher’s art, and stained glass masterpieces will ignite creativity and curiosity.

🔹 “I Can” Confidence Builders! – Students will master:

• Identifying and classifying geometric shapes in art.

• Applying transformations like reflection, rotation, and translation.

• Understanding how symmetry creates breathtaking patterns.

🔹 Tech-Infused Exploration! – Students will experiment with online symmetry tools and interactive mosaic creators, blending traditional art with modern technology.

🔹 Creative Masterpiece Challenge! – Students will design their own symmetrical mosaics using grids, applying at least two transformations to craft mesmerizing patterns.

🔹 Interactive Finale! – The learning journey wraps up with a peer gallery walk, digital sorting reassessment, and a summative Kahoot! quiz, making the review process dynamic and engaging.
